A Washington state student was terrorized in a bullying attack by peers — <a href=”http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/08/30/john-rosi-washington-midd_n_1841998.html?utm_hp_ref=school-bullying”>and at some points, by the teacher</a>. The incidents occurred in February at a Gig Harbor middle school. Cell phone footage shows more than a dozen students dragging the then-eighth-grade boy around the classroom, carrying him by his arms and legs, burying him under chairs, writing on his feet and stuffing his socks in his mouth. The antics last about 15 minutes while teacher John Rosi watches, and later joins in.

Patricia Mulholland

A middle school teacher in South Carolina has been accused of dragging a student under a table during class, <a href=”http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/04/30/sc-teacher-facing-charges_0_n_1465762.html?utm_hp_ref=teachers&#8221; target=”_hplink”>telling the boy “this is what the Nazis do to Jews,” police said.</a> The 12-year-old student said he got up to sharpen a pencil at Bluffton Middle School on Wednesday when Patricia Mulholland grabbed him by his collar and said, “come here, Jew,” police said. The teacher then dragged him 10 feet under a table and made the comment about Nazis, according to police.

George C. Marshall High School Teacher

A Virginia high school English teacher was under investigation for allegedly asking the only black student in the class <a href=”http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/03/18/george-c-marshall-high-sc_n_1358044.html&#8221; target=”_hplink”>to read a poem in a “blacker” manner</a>. Jordan Shumate, a ninth-grader at George C. Marshall High School in Falls Church, Va., says he was reading aloud Langston Hughes’ “Ballad of the Landlord” when teacher Marilyn Bart interrupted him. “She told me, ‘Blacker, Jordan — c’mon, blacker. I thought you were black,'” Shumate said.
